kyle bobby dunn - ways of meaning (12inch vinyl lp)

---

This breathtaking work is at the top of my list as one of the most gorgeous ambient albums of all time. A modern classic. - Jeremy/Experimedia

Ways of Meaning, Kyle Bobby Dunn's new full-length album and the second release for Desire Path Recordings, is a treatise on the resonance of memory; an attempt to harness the finality of meaning as a shared experience.

Mainly arranged for guitar and organ, the six works contained herein offer a look into Dunn's mind as an artist deeply concerned with time, memory, consequence, identity, and meaning. Each piece, while created from and inspired by very personal moments, represents a point of transference, allowing the minutiae of experience to pass through the grooves of the vinyl to the listener to act as a salve for our collective emptiness, a catalyst for solace, or a pathway out of our ever-present longing.

Some moments recall church and choral music, others are anthemic in their own quiet way, and sadness finds warm overtones to help quell its cold nature. Spatial qualities are examined thoroughly; clarity is reached when viewing one's surroundings. The environment comes into focus and a reverie encapsulates the listener. Distant memories spawn a sense of yearning and each moment allows for profound feeling.
